Mathematics: Is God Silent?
By James Nickel.
Mathematics: Is God Silent? is a valuable reference book for any math teacher.
This extensive book functions like a Christian encyclopedia on math. You may find
this book challenging to read because of its thoroughness and mathematical terminology,
but it contains a lot of important mathematical information and is well worth the
effort! In the first part of the book, you will find concepts and examples intertwined
with a complete chronological history of math. The second part of the book explains
how numerous math concepts reflect God’s character and are used practically. The book
also looks at teaching techniques and failures, offers guidelines for teachers, and
evaluates a host of resources you can use to teach, especially if you have older children. I find myself using this book over and over again.
Revised and enlarged 2001 edition. Paperback, 408 pages. $20.00

Exploring the World of Mathematics
Exploring the World of Mathematics by John Hudson Tiner does an excellent
job sharing some of the history and practicality of math without containing the typical
evolutionary baisis. Developed in such a way that elementary through high school students
can enjoy it, this book works well as a supplement to any math curriculum. Hudson writes in an easy-to-read style (I have been reading it before bed each night),
yet at the same time includes a few thought-provoking math problems at the end of
each chapter. Students of different ages and skill levels can use this fascinating
book. Intended as a supplement to a homeschool curriculum, it’s more than just a math
book. Tracing the history of mathematics principles and theory, it includes stories
and tips showing math to be practical for everyday use. Included are: • Basic mathematical
principles including some simple algebra, geometry, and scientific math • Egyptian
and Greek contributions to mathematics • Math involving time, the seasons, and measurement
• Lots of fun activities illustrating mathematical principles • Chapter tests (answers
included in back) • Over 150 illustrations and diagrams $13.99
